I think the biggest component of a successful early learning professional is that you have to genuinely enjoy children. You have to find them interesting, funny, and most importantly recognize that they are people. Having a warm and caring personality with a passion for teaching and learning is also important. Professionals in this field should be diverse to reflect the population of the students they teach, and they need to have a good foundation of developmental ages and stages to help them understand what is reasonable to expect of their students.
